[CQ-Contest] "please copy"

[Ward Silver]

Many times operators that tried to tell ME what MY class and section was,
instead of reporting their own.  They would say something like, "UR 3A CO"
or "You're 1B in Kansas" when I was clearly 2A in Western Washington!  Could
I have been wrong?

Confused Field Day Operator
